Hymn 93
8 8 6 8 8 6
1. How precious is thy word, O Lord!
What light and joy those leaves afford
To souls in deep distress!
Thy fear forbids our feet to stray,
Thy precepts guide our doubtful way,
And lead to righteousness.
2. Thy threatenings wake our slumbering eyes,
And warn us where our danger lies:
But 'tis thy gospel, Lord,
That makes the guilty conscience clean,
Converts the soul, and conquers sin,
And gives a free reward.
